Of course
not.
Libby
But I bet
you dollars to donuts when you are doing a scene that involves smoothing
away those forehead creases it won't be a competitors' product.
Lauren
They don't
have any say in the creative process.
Libby
Oh, sure
except to approve the pilot and guarantee advertising if it fulfills
the mandate.
Well I
think it's wonderful. It's time they cleaned up TV. Hopefully as they
go along they'll be able to weed out unsavoury types on television,
you know the one's I mean...the shows that lessen the moral fiber of
the country.
Lauren
I really
don't think that...
Libby
It was
a shame "Young Americans" the first series backed by the Family
Fund was knocked so mercilessly. Variety said "We interrupt our
sponsors for a word from this program."
They obviously
don't remember watching quality TV in the 50's when in between song
and dance numbers the actors hawked appliances and cigarettes.
Those were
the good days of TV. Couples slept in separate beds, no one got divorced,
women wore pearls to get the morning paper.
Wonderful
days.
There were
no "issues", no problems that couldn't be solved with a good
talk and a glass of milk.
I wish
you all the luck in the world and I want you to know I will be your
number one supporter.
Lauren
Somehow
that doesn't make me feel all that great. I'm just an actor playing
a role to the best of my ability. You make me feel like I'm some sort
of puppet.
Libby
Oh, hon
please, I don't know why you would feel that way. I know when it comes
right down to it you don't have a say in what goes on.
No one
knows better than me how hard it is to get an acting job. I was this
close to being Tuesday Weld's stand in until the higher-ups nixed it
by saying they wanted someone who at the very least resembled her. So
I know hon, I know.
I'm just
very excited about the new direction television is taking. It looks
like I'll finally be able to wear my pearls to the market again and
get twin beds.
Very exciting.
